A Holistic Ecosystem: Controllers, Readers & Software
What sets Rosslare apart is its ability to provide a complete, integrated access control solution from end-to-end:
1. Versatile Multi-Door Controllers: At the heart of any scalable access control system are the controllers. Rosslare offers a robust range designed for various project sizes and complexities:
- 2-Door Controllers (AC-215IPBE): Ideal for smaller offices, server rooms, or specific high-security areas.
- 4-Door Controllers (AC-425IPBE): Perfect for medium-sized businesses, departmental access, or managing multiple entry points within a larger zone.
- 8-Door Controllers (AC-825IP): Suited for larger facilities, multi-floor buildings, or extensive perimeter control, offering centralized management of numerous access points. These controllers are built for reliability, offering robust communication (including TCP/IP) and offline operation, ensuring security even if network connectivity is temporarily lost.
2. Diverse Reader Options for Every Need: Rosslare’s commitment to flexibility is evident in its extensive range of reader technologies:
- RFID Readers (AY-K35, AY-K6255, AY-K12C): From standard 125 kHz proximity to advanced 13.56 MHz MIFARE Classic® and DESFire® EV1 smart card readers, offering varying levels of security and functionality for everyday access.
- Biometric Readers (AY-B9150BT): For heightened security and undeniable authentication, Rosslare offers fingerprint readers, with options for “Live Finger Matching” technology to enhance user privacy by storing templates on the credential itself.
- Bluetooth (BLE) Readers (AY-H6255BT): Embracing modern convenience, these readers allow mobile phones to serve as credentials, enabling touchless access and easy configuration via a dedicated BLE app.
- Keypad Readers (AYC-H6355): Providing a traditional yet effective layer of security, often used in combination with card access for two-factor authentication (PIN + Card).
- UHF Long Range Readers (AY-U920BT, AY-U915BT): As discussed in our previous post, these are crucial for vehicle access control, allowing hands-free entry from distances of up to 10 meters, ideal for parking lots and boom barrier integration.
3. Powerful AxTraxPro™ Access Control Software: The brain behind the entire system, Rosslare’s AxTraxPro™ software, offers intuitive and comprehensive management capabilities:
- Centralized Management: Control all aspects of your access control system from a single platform, whether on-premise or remotely via web and mobile interfaces.
- Advanced Access Policies: Define granular access groups, time zones, anti-passback rules, interlock groups, and more, for precise control over who goes where and when.
- Identity Management: Easily manage user information, assign multiple credentials per user (up to 16, including Face-ID, Fingerprint, PIN, RFID, UHF, NFC, BLE, and LPR), and implement multi-factor authentication.
- Real-time Monitoring & Reporting: Get instant alerts for alarms (tamper, forced entry, door ajar), view real-time events, and generate detailed reports for attendance, visitor logs, and more.
- Integration Capabilities: Seamlessly integrate with other security systems like CCTV/VMS (e.g., Hikvision, Dahua, Milestone XProtect), intercoms, elevator control systems, and even parking management solutions for a unified security infrastructure.
- Enhanced Security: Features like AES 128-bit/256-bit encryption for communication from credential to server ensure robust data protection and privacy compliance.
